Bb
Oh the stars they did shine
Eb Bb
The night you swore that you'd be mine
F Bb
And you promised always to be true and to be kind
Bb
On that Shenandoah Hill
Eb Bb
Where our love bloomed until
Gm F Bb
I went away and left those promised behind
 
Chorus:
Bb
But when I rise frmo the timberline
F Bb
And call your name will you rember mine?
Eb7
And the sweetest kiss will be the tie that binds
Bb F Bb
Like the wild, wild rose and the columbine
 
To that place I will go
Where th wildwook flowers grow
With a ribbon in my hair and a gown of calico
To those Shenandoah Hills
I'll go back I swear I will
To the sweetest kiss my lips will ever know
 
Chorus (repeat and fade)
